How do I wear my "Big Girl" panties and "deal with it" when they won't stay up? (NSV)

So, for years now, I've been a fan of the phrase "Put on your Big Girl panties and deal with it"... seems to sum up what I mean about learning to accept adversity with grace and style....

Yesterday, I wrote a blog post that honestly made me giggle. Excessively. Because I was able to play with words. I love words. Especially with friends. ;)

And I talked about all the positive things I had gained since joining MFP. What? You say? Gained? But I joined MFP to lose! And lose, I have... in terms of weight.

But as I read the comments, I honestly was so pleased that so many of you enjoyed what I had to say that I decided to write the blog post I've been avoiding for the last few days. Because I wasn't 100% sure that I wanted to share THIS particular NSV with you all.

But since in the words of Sally Fields "You like me.... You really like me"... here goes.

I am assertive, confident, and strong. I control my destiny, my attitude, and my eating habits. I am loud and boisterous and live life with one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the shopping cart. I'm a Mom of 2 amazing boys, wife to a wonderful husband, and my life is full of amazing friends. I'm a 2nd (soon to be 3rd) degree black belt. I am one of the owners of a martial arts school where family comes first and friends become family. I think I handle adversity pretty darn well considering I destroyed my foot in an unfortunate incident a year and a half ago. I don't let anything get me down.

But, please.... don't ask me to put my Big Girl panties on and deal with it... cause THEY DON"T FIT ANYMORE! ;) Guess I'll have to learn to deal with stuff like Spongebob does... in Bikini Bottom instead! ;)
